Henry VIII and his older brother, Arthur Tudor—were they close siblings or distant strangers? The answer might surprise you!   Despite being brothers, their lives were shaped by duty, distance, and very different upbringings. Arthur, as the heir to the throne, was raised in his own household, away from court, while young Henry was spoiled, surrounded by women, and never trained as a future king.   By the time Arthur tragically died at just 15, Henry had barely spent any time with him. But there's one thing they did share… a wife!   So, was Henry's relationship with Arthur truly distant, or is there more to the story? Find out in today's Quick Q&A!   #TudorHistory #HenryVIII #ArthurTudor #TudorTrivia #RoyalBrothers #HistoryLover #MedievalHistory
